Cocos2d-x 4.0 Lens3D and Waves3D Animations - c++

Question

I used below code to make water like animation for background image
auto background = Sprite::create(TEX_MM_BG);
background->setPosition(Vec2(SW*0.5f, SH*0.5f));
auto nodeGrid = NodeGrid::create();
nodeGrid->addChild(background);
this->addChild(nodeGrid, 0);
ActionInterval* lens = Lens3D::create(10, Size(32, 24), Vec2(100, 180), 150);
ActionInterval* waves = Waves3D::create(10, Size(15, 10), 18, 15);
nodeGrid->runAction(RepeatForever::create(Sequence::create(waves,lens, NULL)));
Animation look is good. But it stops 10 seconds then play 10 seconds then again stops 10 seconds...it repeats. How to avoid stoping in middle ?

Answer 1

It doesn't stop it is applying waves effect followed by lens effect. While applying lens effect the animation of waves stops.
Correct way to code this will be to use a Spawn:
ActionInterval* lens = Lens3D::create(10, Size(32, 24), Vec2(100, 180), 150);
ActionInterval* waves = Waves3D::create(10, Size(15, 10), 18, 15);
// Spawn will run both effects at the same time.
auto lensWaveSpawn = Spawn::createWithTwoActions(lens, waves);
auto seq = Sequence::create(lensWaveSpawn, nullptr);
nodeGrid->runAction(RepeatForever::create(seq));
